some people think that the government have the duty to ensure its citizens have a healthy diet, while others argue it is the responsibility of each individual. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

An often debated topic is whether the

government

should guarantee

food

safety for its people.

Although

there are good reasons to support

this

, I believe that individuals should be responsible for their meals. A healthy diet depends primarily on foods available in the market, and for

this

reason it would be necessary for the

government

to control

food

sources. Without governmental control, citizens would find it difficult to know which foods are safe for their meals. By imposing

food

laws, the

government

can limit the level of additives that

food

producers use, allowing consumers to eat healthily and reducing the risk of

food

poisoning.

On the other hand

, when a person decides what to eat, they do so of their free will, and

this

should be respected. Some foods are known as unhealthy, but only when people consume them excessively or frequently.

For example

, the consequences of the intake of fast

food

are not worth mentioning if we do not eat it regularly. Any involvement of the

government

with the daily choices would merely restrict the options we have.

Furthermore

, some people have an allergy to a particular type of

foods

Accept comma addition

foods, although

although

it is generally healthy to others. It is unjustified for the

government

to restrict the consumption of mushrooms just because a few people cannot eat them. From

this

view, I feel that each person should be responsible for what they eat rather than relying on any policy

from

Suggestion

of

the

government

on

food

choices. In conclusion, it seems to me that people should bear the responsibility for a healthy diet despite undeniable advantages of governmental control over

food

choices.
